boron nitride ceramics

Boron Nitride Ceramic

Boron nitride has a variety of crystal structures, including the most common hexagonal structure (h-BN), high-hardness cubic structure (c-BN), and the rhombic structure (r-BN) generated during the crystal phase transition process, in addition to wurtzite type boron nitride (w-BN) and two-dimensional boron nitride crystal.

Hexagonal structure boron nitride can be fabricated by hot press sintering or pyrolysis process, with high temperature and corrosion resistance, good insulation and thermal stability, and it is widely used to produce crucible, insulating parts and high temperature and corrosion resistance parts.

Cubic boron nitride is synthesized by hexagonal boron nitride under high temperature condition, with extremely high hardness, second only to diamond, it is commonly used to manufacture machining tools and abrasive tools.

Q:What is the thermal conductivity of Boron Nitride Ceramic?
A:Boron Nitride Ceramic has excellent thermal conductivity, typically around 30-60 W/m·K, depending on the grade. This makes it suitable for applications requiring efficient heat dissipation, especially in electronics and high-temperature environments.

 

Q:Is Boron Nitride Ceramic chemically resistant?
A:Yes, Boron Nitride Ceramic is chemically inert and highly resistant to most acids, alkalis, and solvents. It does not react with molten metals, making it ideal for use in metal processing and chemical industries.

 

Q:Can Boron Nitride Ceramic withstand high temperatures?
A: Boron Nitride Ceramic can operate at high temperatures up to 900℃ in air and up to 2000℃ in inert or reducing atmospheres. Its stability at high temperatures makes it suitable for refractory applications and components exposed to extreme heat.

 

Q:What are the electrical insulation properties of Boron Nitride Ceramic?
A:Boron Nitride Ceramic is an excellent electrical insulator with a high dielectric strength and low dielectric constant, even at high temperatures. This makes it ideal for use in high-voltage electrical applications and electronic components.

 

 

Q:How does Boron Nitride Ceramic perform in lubricating applications?
A:Hexagonal Boron Nitride Ceramic exhibits low friction and can act as a solid lubricant, especially in high-temperature environments where conventional lubricants would fail. This property is useful in applications like bearings and seals where lubrication is critical.

Properties of BN Ceramics

Boron nitride is a kind of widely used advanced industrial ceramic, to meet the needs of different fields, appropriate boron nitride ceramic type can be selected, to achieve required properties.
